The European Union has a general format that is followed by member countries but there are some variations.

See European Union Country Requirements.

If you are shipping to PR the “country” (meaning your address has a country code of ‘PR’), your order needs to have an international service on it (Worldwide Express, Worldwide Expedited, etc.) because you are shipping from the US to PR.

If you are shipping to Puerto Rico the "state," it needs to go out on a domestic service (UPS Ground, 2nd Day Air, etc.).

See Supply Chain Cloud Address Requirements.

Please note that a State/Province code is not required for many shipping addresses.

If you would like to find the equivalent code for your country, see ISO Country Codes, where you can browse codes using the online platform. 

Fix the ZIP Code. It either has an incorrect format (e.g., only four characters) or it doesn’t match the city/state that has been specified.

AX addresses (and for the FedEx/UPS shipping integration) must begin with the street number and street name on the first line plus any additional information necessary to locate a specific sub-location at that address (e.g., Apt 100, #35, Suite 200).

Do not add other information (e.g., no “care of”, c/o, no ATTN).

If specifying an ATTN, do not include a colon (e.g., use ATTN, not Attn:).

City is missing or incorrect.

Adjust the Address name/description field to be 35 characters or less (e.g., change “and” to “&”, shorten “Manufacturing” to “Mfg”, etc.).

City is missing or incorrect.

See Supported Currencies for a full list.

See ZPL Printer Setup.

There is no mobile/touch support.

Supply Chain Cloud is supported and fully tested on Google Chrome. 

You may be able to access it on other browsers; however, we cannot guarantee all features will work. 

Minimum screen resolution: 1366x768.

Supply Chain Cloud currently supports 203 DPI Zebra label printers for ZPL labels.

Some carriers also support printing labels via PDF, which should be compatible with most office printers.

No, Supply Chain Cloud does not currently support international shipments with values of more than $2,500.

An item value can be less than $1 if the international shipment value is at least $1.

If you are using container-based manifesting, a commercial invoice will print every time you manifest a container on that shipment.

We recommend that you switch to shipment-based manifesting to receive a single commercial invoice for each shipment.

See Shipment Manifest for more information.

Several countries require a picture of a signature when shipping to them.

You can upload a Letterhead or Signature for your international documents: Upload Images

DHL Express shipments require commercial invoices to be generated by DHL, even if the Include invoice checkbox is not selected.

This is expected until a future state of Supply Chain Cloud. 

See Paperless Invoice for more information.

Check FedEx's list of Vague Commodity Descriptions for your entry.

Update your description based on the example acceptable description for your commodity.

Make sure a value is set on the Purchase Price.

If one is set, and you are shipping to Puerto Rico, make sure you are shipping to a Puerto Rican address.

You need to fill out the Country/region field on the released product. 

You need to fill out the Search name field on the released product.

UPS does not allow your Ship To and Customer addresses to be in two different countries.

Canada and satellite countries are the exceptions to this rule. See a list of Satellite Countries from UPS.

USPS does not allow the following words in the Item Description field:

There is a browser caching issue that can prevent users from logging in to Supply Chain Cloud.

Carriers do not return negotiated rates through the Test API.

To see your negotiated rates, you must either be in a Production environment or turn on the Use Production Credentials toggle in your Test environment and run a rate shop or shipment.

See SCC Shipping Parameters for more information.

This most likely indicates there is a third-party system issue (e.g., carriers, host systems, etc.). 

However, this could be a Supply Chain Cloud issue.

The shipment you are trying to manifest does not meet the criteria specified in the Account Assignment table. 

Example:
You have an account assignment record for UPS that only applies to warehouse “A” and you attempt to ship a UPS shipment out of warehouse “B”.

If there is not an account assignment record that matches the criteria for shipments coming out of warehouse “B,” you will receive an error stating that an account assignment record cannot be found.

Note: If you have an account assignment record for UPS that does not have a warehouse specified, it should work/apply for all warehouses.

The individual service is not enabled in Supply Chain Cloud.

Enable this service on the carrier configuration page.

No updated license file is currently needed. 

If one is needed for a future release, Avanade will communicate deadlines and instructions through Supply Chain Cloud Release Notes as well as informational pages.

Saturday delivery is requested by adding an accessorial. Accessorials can be added manually or via accessorial assignment.

2. Make sure the account assignment records are enabled. Account assignment records that are not enabled are not considered during the account assignment process.

If you are using prepaid shipping terms, and DDP is enabled, a third-party account number is still required on the customer's account/sales order because DDP is stating that the end customer is responsible for duties and taxes.

Rate shopping does not need that value, but manifesting does.

When using third-party billing delivery terms for a FedEx shipment with test credentials, expected behavior is to receive an error message detailing the third-party account number is missing, invalid, or unauthorized.

FedEx looks for other Test account numbers to bill against when pointed to the Test API.

If you want to test third-party billing against Test credentials, use a UPS mode of delivery.
